TILER PECK ON DANCING WITH THE STARS NEXT WEEK IN TRAVIS WALL ROUTINE

 

According to the New York Times, Tiler Peck will appear in next Tuesday’s Dancing With the Stars elimination show in a dance choreographed by Travis Wall. The performance is part of the show’s Macy’s Stars of Dance series; she’ll appear along with 12 others.

I didn’t write about this week’s show. Just couldn’t get into it. Did love how Ochocinco shows us how he talks to himself though 🙂 Just overall, the show is getting boring to me again… Hopefully it’ll spice up soon. I think part of my boredom this week had to with the fact that I just don’t like Paso, or, rather, hate how it’s performed on these shows (loved it in Strictly Ballroom though).  And, then, last night I ended up watching most of the Yankees v. Red Sox game instead. I know Buzz got kicked off. Too bad!

I think my favorites overall were still Donny Osmond and Kym — he’s just too much fun and so cute! He had all that fast footwork in the Jive so down, from the tricks, the flicks, the kicks, the slides, the character — all of it.

Other favorites were Mark and Lacey’s Quickstep — wow, he can really dance: that high jete in sync, that leapfrog over her head, the runs, the footwork. Very polished, and very athletic. I didn’t expect that from a chef…

I also liked Mya and Dmitry’s Jive. I think she is a natural. She did those turns like a pro
